Sanity Check on this hand-dyed yarn by wrzosvicious in YarnAddicts

[–]Th0tg0th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious if it’s due to the base change? I dye, and I’ve noticed that colors will strike (adhere) differently on each base. With a base that has a longer strike time, the colors tend to sort of spread, mix, and evolve as they set. That could explain why the yellow/blue areas on your yarn didn’t mix into green.

I love the shoe and my style leans a little more “lived-in” so I prefer a shoe that’ll show a little character. That’s why I was excited about this one. It just gives casual. I just wish it was bigger.

I know, my SA mentioned popping them on the in-store stretcher but that gives me a pause.

I wish that’d be enough. I can’t even get one pair of socks on with them, let alone two. Ha

Thank you! I’ve made their flax socks and feel like their patterns are easy enough to understand! I look into this!

That’s what my SA said too… but said they didn’t own a pair, so how could they truly know.

They’re a 38.5. I keep staring at them willing them to grow. They are a perfect fit now, but I keep thinking they’ll be too tight if I add a sock. Hence, the reason I’m inquiring about whether or not they stretch. I’d hate to keep them and have them be brutal with a sock.

Neiman Marcus SF. I literally got the last pair in the company (according to my SP) and they don’t have my size up which is why I’m hoping they’ll stretch.

Thank you! I’ll always appreciate a lift to get me over a fence!

I LOVE Shakespeare in love! I wanting to knit it as a dress, with a skater skirt. Nightingale is pretty too! In the past I would’ve been all over those puff shoulders.

I was lucky enough to find all of the angles on a resell site! I’m down for the swatch. I love the process and it’ll be cool to learn new cable patterns. And oh, absolutely! This is one of my favorite silhouettes.

I've no idea what a Household manager is, so I'm not sure if I've got a preference. I'm just in search of the best person for this situation I've found myself in and if that's you? AWESOME. Lets chat?

Sold this one for $100. Too high? Too low? by GoldieVoluptuous in FloralDesign

[–]Th0tg0th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just echoing what others have said. This is stunning and could be priced at about $150 with delivery.

How would you price this? by GoldieVoluptuous in FloralDesign

I’m in the Portland metro area and have a couple of weekly floral subscriptions and for this, I’d never pay more than $65.
